[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 165736, member: 9521"] Interesting article. I suspect Chicago-Sun Times will be the poster child for all things non-professional related and for good reason. The notion that a paper can get by using iPhones vs. decent DSLR (or SLR) is just plain silly and Jeff Goldblum's line perfectly illustrates the problem. It's like a faltering pizza parlor switching to frozen pizza's instead of making better pizzas. Things will only get worse for them. If the Chicago-Sun Times is failing it's not because readers want less, if anything readers want more. And while the internet is clearly eating into the traditional newspaper market, there is still a market for newspapers and a savvy publisher will find a way to capture that market and I "guarantee" (ala - Justin Wilson) it won't be the papers switching to iPhones.
